The 3-D distributions of temperature, stress, strain, and birefringence were calculated by a finite element analysis. Based on these data, the space-resolved optical path difference and depolarization ...

Abstract: Thanks to a magneto-optical method, we have measured the beat length of a photonic crystal fiber (PCF). Our experiments emphasize the singular behavior of the birefringence of a PCF versus ...

Artificial crystals of light, consisting of hundreds of thousands of optical microtraps, are routinely created by interfering optical laser beams. These so-called optical lattices act as versatile ...

Optical physics is the study of the fundamental properties of light and its interaction with matter. This includes classical optical phenomena such as reflection, refraction, diffraction and ...

My Husband’s eyes were examined here. He liked the way the dr was friendly, asked good questions & had a lot of experience in the profession! We received very personable service. The staff ...

Results from multiple randomized clinical trials comparing outcomes after intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)– and optical coherence tomography (OCT)–guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with ...

Artists and scientists have been creating optical illusions for centuries. Here are 35 mind-bending examples that prove you can't always trust what your eyes are telling you.
